Exceptional Elegance in Manchester Vermont

We stayed at the Wilburton Inn (Wilburton Mansion and Maxwell House) for a corporate retreat this past weekend. Our hosts, Melissa, Alan and all of their staff, were extremely accommodating, considerate and helped to ensure every detail was attended to. The old world charm of the mansion creates a unique ambiance that adds an elegant touch to the stay. The chef, Gary, prepared wonderful breakfasts and dinner during our stay and the grounds offered lots of space to walk, enjoy, and explore. We highly recommend a stay here! Whether you are a couple looking for a romantic getaway, a family looking to get out of the city or a large group, the Wilburton is the perfect place to make memories you will never forget.More

Thanks so much for sharing your glowing feedback! We loved hosting your group and seeing your team have a great retreat and bonding experience in the country. From skiing to massages to karaoke and a formal dress up dinner and late nights singing around the piano and fire, you really took advantage of the setting and we all wish you great success with your company! Till next time, Melissa and family

My parents have been coming to the Wilburton Inn for 18 years. No matter the season, they have always loved being there (summers, autumn foliage and winters). The views are breathtaking. The Inn is lovely and the staff is extremely hospitable. And you ALWAYS wind up meeting new friends. For the past 6 New Years, we have traveled to the Inn for New Years to ring in the New Year and also to celebrate my mother's birthday on January 1. A crew of 11 of us (brother, sister, spouses and kids) all gather to descend upon the Inn and we have the best time EVER. We walk the beautiful grounds, we spend time in the main house having quality time by the fireplace, we wake up to fantastic breakfasts, before taking advantage of the shopping in the nearby Manchester town center or skiing, sledding, tubing or just playing in the snow. Even when there is NO snow, we enjoy hikes and plenty of other nearby outdoor activites. Wilburton, and the fantastic family that runs the in, has become a home away from home for us and it is synonymous with celebration and with family. The New Years eve party is a non stop dance fest, with a Gatzby like feel, but homey and sincere. Whether we are celebrating a holiday, or just lounging around, conversing and/or playing games during some serene and much needed down time, there is no place better to stay if you are in the Manchester area. Heck, if you aren't in the immediate area, re-route your trip and make it a point of staying at the Wilburton Inn. Only then will you truly come to appreciate and understand the magic that is Wilburton!!!!!

The Inn-keepers are so gracious, warm and welcoming! The accomodations are outstanding with spacious rooms, extremely comfortable and well appointed furnishings, and gorgeous views from every window. The property offers a variety of amenities and activities, as well as countless tranquil places to relax and renew...the fact that the Wilburton is pet friendly makes it extra special. This review would not be complete without acknowledging the spectacular breakfast of homemade breads, preserves, quiches, pancakes, fresh fruit and the most incredible coffee cake ever...you don't just stay at the Wilburton, you experience it!

Thank you so much for joining us! We do love dogs! And now we've started a new tradition of Howl'oween each Halloween weekend with no pet fees and a special doggie costume ball! We're so glad you enjoyed the breakfast. Our brother's breads are amazing! We hope to see again!Melissa

We had a group of 10 staffers at the Wilburton Inn August 4-7. We had the most fantastic stay. Our six bedroom, 6.5 bath house was perfect - clean, comfortable with stunning views. The grounds of the Inn are spectacular and unique - with a real story. The hospitality is truly amazing ... something you'd only find at a well run, family owned Inn. Thanks to Melissa and the entire Levis family for making us feel so welcome.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★Seven of my coworkers and I had the pleasure (and luck) of staying at the Wilburton while in Manchester on business. It was the perfect place with spacious, clean rooms, all amenities and a great open kitchen/dining area. We were able to work together and have our privacy. Highly recommended. We attended the weekly Wednesday night dinner party at the main house, what a wonderful collection of interesting people combined with delicious food and live music. All set against the g

My entire extended family (42 people in all) celebrated my brother's 50th birthday. The majority of us, ranging from ages 3-68, stayed in the mansion. It was absolutely perfect for us- the kids enjoyed all the space not to mention the ping pong table, games, big flat screen television etc. The adults loved the space too and enjoyed sitting outside as well - we even had a wonderful fire in the fire pit one night. There is so much to do in the Manchester area. We went swimming in the quarry, went to Emerald Lake, hiked Bromley Mtn, shopped downtown.... The staff (family) at Wilburton are just fantastic. It's clearly a family run Inn and they are most personable and welcoming. They truly want to make your stay the best one possible. The chef is fantastic and focuses on local and his own farm grown products. Just delicious (I highly recommend the farm to table buffet on Wednesday nights). He also cooked our meal for our celebration dinner and it was amazing. You also can't get a better view in Vermont on the Wilburton Inn venue. It was all fantastic and I'd definitely stay there again.
